“Loved it”

I have to say that I am a culprit at writing reviews when I have had a bad experience but this time I had to write a honest review of a holiday we enjoyed.

I have to say that I am a culprit at writing reviews when I have had a bad experience but this time I had to write a honest review of a holiday we enjoyed. One thing is, yes it’s built on a hill so a lot of walking around to your room but they do have golf buggy’s that will take you there and back when you call. Myself and my husband were lucky we had a room 1013 which was just opposite the tennis courts and not far from reception. Amazing views. The room was okay in size for us. It was spotless, clean bedding daily, as well as towels. An amazing comfortable bed which you did fall asleep as soon as you hit the pillows which were very plump and soft. Only negative is the double bed is two singles pushed together which you generally get most hotels but we had to stay on our sides of the bed. Nice clean bathroom with a great power shower and the water was so soft for hair and skin. Large tv, not many Uk tv channels but I just put it on for back ground noise. Check in was easy, arrived 3 hours before check in and was told our room was ready. Wrist bands on ready to use the all inclusive facilities. The reception staff are amazing and whatever we asked was met with a professional attitude. The restaurant. Loved it…… I have been to quite a few places in the balarics and Canary Islands and this is the best. So much to choose from. Salads - amazing choice of around 15 different dishes. Of course, fries and pizza, calamari Then you get your meat dishes from stews, to duck dishes to potato bravas, rice etc, the. Your grilled veg, grilled meat and grilled fish, fresh bread, you then get paella every night but they tend to mix it up with a meat paella with rice and a macaroni pasta with seafood. Both tasted great. You then during the week had sushi, kebab meat, chilli, nachos. Etc. You then had cheese section and then desserts which there was a lot of, you even had a selection of ice creams and whippy machine as well as toppings to choose from. The soups were also amazing. Breakfast was the same daily but again a lot of choice. Your choice of Cold meats/cheese Pancakes with toppings Waffles Bacon Scrambled Eggs Fried eggs Omelettes Baked beans Tomatoes Mushrooms Hash browns Fries (random but it happens) Choose breads and toast Lots of fresh fruits and cereal and yougurts. Also if you like it, you can have cava with your breakfast if you fancy daily. Only issue now is the drinks. They are machines. The orange juice is way too sweet, I didn’t try the apple and pineapple so I ended up with water. The tea, awful, please bring PG tips with you, trust me you will thank me. Tbh, I would bring coffee with you too, I personally don’t drink coffee but my husband does and you cannot get a Good cup. Bring your own, they have hot water, milk and sugar. Your sorted. Pool areas. There are 3, the children’s area, which I felt was amazing, I only say this as I Imagine my 13 month old grandson being there and he would have loved it. Lots of jets spraying out of planes and I could see kids loved it. Next was a deep pool nearly 3m depth. Then below was a slightly shallower pool But still deep enough. Right next to the bar. The top pool was open at 10am compared to to the others which were open at 9am everyday. We choose this area mostly because of the double beds that surrounded the area. These were comfortable and relaxing. The pools though are freezing. Just wish in non summer peak months they would heat them a little. One thing I have to praise is each pool area is gated off, so no need to get up extra early and reserve those sunbeds. Just get there before opening time. Smoking areas are outside the general areas but not too far away if you are smoker. Entertainment Shocking If you have children that are young then you are in. If not go out, be prepared to spend a taxi fair into san an. 8 euros each way but plenty of bars and shops Too tips for the hotel Make the top pool area with the beds, adults only, we want to relax and it’s designed for that, don’t want children running around you when your relaxing especially when they have another 3 pools to choose from. Better entertainment in the evening. Start children’s club around 7:30 for an hour or have this is the other stage area and have adult entertainment. We have stayed while they are building next to it, which some didn’t complain about, we were not bothered as very interesting to see this beautiful 5 star outdoor club/restaurant being built. Would we come again, most definitely and will recommend it. Enjoy your holiday, we did, a married couple going on holiday with another couple. Lots of laughter, I even lost my voice due to it.
